Mate your 14, you aint gonna make a huge amount of gains size wise, but you will make huge gains strength wise.

You can totally gain size at 14, I got about 20lbs. This guy can too as long as he eats tons. But I guess I can see your point too, seeing as you (not you specifically) likely haven't hit puberty at full force when you're 14.

Hey bro, yes eating will improve your gains. I can see people getting a little fed up over answering your questions, but guys remember, he is 14! Give the guy a break.

Now to clear things up:
-Eating a lot will make you gain fat, but it will also boost the amount of muscle you make.
-The fat you gain is part of bulking, sounds bad, but the beauty of it is that you can cut afterwards.
-Gaining muscle takes time, especially when you're 14. I'm only 16 and new to this too just like you, but working out and eating has helped me a lot. Never give up. It will happen one day.

All i can say is, lift hard, sleep hard and eat hard. And never forget about what you could potentially be in the future following these 3 simple concepts.

[Fuzzhead]

i get you and i have a good routine going

so 3500 calories a day

i will have to eat a bit of junk to get 2 that much is that bad

then cut at about april for summer

[youdonejellyd]

You don't really need to eat THAT many calories. Seeing as you said you were obese before, the likely hood is that you have a slow metabolism. 2500-3000 calories should do. But remember to try making those clean calories, like pasta, lean meats etc.

Also, one thing you can try is to supplement your diet with a protein shake or two. But that is only once you have sorted out your diet.

Is it? just add up the calories and you should know

[Fuzzhead]

Is it? just add up the calories and you should know

about 1800-2200

[PM12345]

about 1800-2200

That's not 1800-2000 cals man, unless your portions are really big, and there's very little protein there, you should be aiming for 1g of protein for every pound you weigh

[Metallicles]

If you have to ask whether or not you have made any gains, the answer is no. You would know it if you did. Get on a good hypertrophy routine and lift hard.

[Fuzzhead]

shall i eat some more meat then yeah

[Mlilmoss84]

if he hasnt then well 'i dunno'?

This is key in this thread

[trogoth]

When bulking, yes you will gain some fat. But you're also going to be gaining lots of muscle, so it's not going to make you look like a fatty or something. Fat on nothing looks bad. Fat on muscle looks swole.

Just eat and lift.

[Fuzzhead]

id eat way more but my mum trys to stop me its anoying i secretly have to go out and buy milk and packs of ham to try and get my protein and cooked turkey and chicken

Eat and lift heavy, you shouldn't make that fat gain.-...**** getting fat!


AT THIS POINT IT DOENS'T MATTER

Just keep eating and lift heavy, make sure you work your abs twice a weak, so If you do make fat gains, you'll still have the muscle under the fat on your stomach.

Bulk for months / year + Cut for a month or two = ????


Profit.
